Summary

Have you ever had a major life change hit you that you’d file under #didntseethatcoming? If you’ve ever found yourself struggling with receiving bad news, you’re going to want to listen in to soak up the wisdom and hope flowing from this week’s guest, Danielle Walker. The New York Times bestselling cookbook author, mama, health advocate, wellness expert, and (self-trained!) chef sits down with Paula to talk about finding her way through the darkness of a crushing diagnosis at a young age. Hear how navigating the struggles of her autoimmune disease helped her discover her true calling on the other side. Danielle and Paula discuss the ups and the downs of the autoimmune journey, including the dietary changes that ended Danielle’s suffering and the ways she’s helped others with similar issues continue to enjoy good food. Hear about the bright spots that paved her path forward, why our gut health matters more than we think, and how she battles food FOMO today (hint: don’t sleep on her Real Deal Chocolate Chip Cookies!). Danielle says it’s not a perfect journey but there’s little excuse not to make it a delicious one. Be encouraged by the steps she offers to begin your own journey of health and actually feel good again. And if you’re feeling alone right now, may this conversation be a lifeline to keep going, as Danielle reminds us that we don’t have to suffer in silence, Friends!
